It looks like your configuration script is looking for the "lex" command. "lex" is a lexical analysis tool that is used for, well, lexical analysis (it's used a lot for building compilers and other such stuff). Anyway, if you're using Linux, then you'll want to edit the configuration script to use "flex" instead of "lex". Otherwise, find and install "lex" (I don't have any information about where you might find it - check with creators of your OS).
